Food can also be 5 minutes a day if you use paper plates and microwave pizza pops for every meal.
You’re paying with something else if it’s not your time.
Eating proper nutritious meals and not having others to share the burden with adds time. 15 minutes of cleanup for 4 people would be an hour for a single person, granted there is less overall to do, but now you need to each task alone.
Putting plates in the dishwasher is hardly more work than using disposable plates, aspecially after you consider the additional trips of taking the trash out
It doesn’t take that long if you clean as you go. Something has to simmer, boil, or bake? Clean during that time.
When I cook, the only thing left after I eat is cleaning the pot/pan used to cook with (which was soaking in hot soapy water while I eat). I also just meal prep food for the whole week on Sundays. Maybe 3-4h of total work if I’m doing more complex recipes.
There are a fuck ton of quick, easy, tasty, and healthy recipes out there.
